Nick Clegg visited a dogging hotspot, but it’s not for the reason you may think.

He was actually launching the Liberal Democrat’s policy to charge 5p for plastic bags in Cathkin Marsh, Glasgow, in 2013.

But the former deputy prime minister had no idea he was standing on a nature reserve where two male pensioners had taken part in an ‘unsavoury act’, according to a new blog from his former campaign manager, who arranged the location.
